My new favorite kitchen accessory is a Trader Joe's Pop-Up Sponge (I never thought I'd say that about a sponge). For $6.99, you get 12 sponges, but they take up less space than ONE sponge! How is that possible? I just love how they are squished flat for easy space-saving storage...these 12 sponges take up way less space than the Costco sponges I used to buy! I have never used Trader Joe's Pop-Up Sponges before and I only bought them to save myself a trip to Costco the other day. I am so glad I found these--I must be the last person on this planet to try them out, but I'm not used to buying these types of items at Trader Joe's.
Trader Joe's Pop-Up Sponges are a product of France...no wonder these are so fancy and soft (they have to be the softest sponges I have ever used!). I am officially hooked! No more Costco or Target sponges for me--it's all about these Trader Joe's Pop-Up Sponges from now on! I don't know what my other sponges were made out of, but these Trader Joe's Pop-Up Sponges are made from Natural Vegetable Cellulose, and after you dip them in water, they expand to their full size (what a neat "magic" trick for kids, too). Now, the only draw back with these sponges is that they do not have a scrubbing pad on one side, but that's ok. The final word: Trader Joe's Pop-Up Sponges are a must-have for those of us with small kitchens and limited storage space!
Who wants to do the dishes? I do, I do!
(This Trader Joe's Pop-Up Sponge almost looks like a nice, soft piece of brioche!)

i use these as facial sponges (cut in thirds while still dehydrated) or as a body sponge for my baby girl. buying natural sea sponges was so expensive (and they're rather smelly) these truly are the best (and double the price at Williams & Sonoma)!
